It was great to see so many families, children and staff supporng our 4, 5 and 6 year olds. Again we have demonstrated success by working and ‘learning together’. On Tuesday night the Woodroffe Primary School Council met. They unanimously supported a trial of the amended Woodroffe Primary School Wellbeing and Behaviour Policy 2017. I am very excited as this is a result of the school’s percepon survey last year and represents the work of a staff/parent commiee who worked in consultaon with staff and council. If you would like to look over the policy you can find it on our website at; hp://web.ntschools.net/w/woodroffeprimary/Policies/2017-Wellbeing-and- Behaviour-Policy.pdf.
